VIDEO: Common Rifle Shooting Mistakes

Lena Miculek goes over the three most common rifle shooting mistakes she sees at the range: (i) stocks adjusted either too long or too short (but she shows how to quickly adjust to what is the best stock length for you); (ii) shooting with the stock too high on the shoulder resulting in poor recoil control; and (iii) holding the rifle too high when shooting from the prone position giving up all the stability advantages that prone shooting offers. 

The shooting with the stock too high on the shoulder seemed to originate with the Tactical Timmy crowd who want to keep their head and neck completely straight and upright when shooting ... which means that you have to bring the rifle up higher to eye level, resulting in only the bottom part of the stock against the shoulder.
